Camel Patchwork Wallet Mélanie Paris

€9.90
Tax included

Two zips run across the front of this Mélanie Paris wallet, one along the whole top edge and one cutting diagonally over the woven panels. A small camel tab, held by a stud, sits on the right to grip it by.

The front mixes an ochre weave flecked with white, a darker orange and black band, and a cream and red geometric square. The back is plain camel. It measures 16 x 9 cm.

A camel wallet with two zips

There are two separate zips here, and they do different jobs. The first follows the entire top edge and opens the main body. The second crosses the front on the diagonal and opens a pocket of its own, which is where a travel card or a folded receipt tends to end up. On the right-hand side a small camel tab, fixed by a stud, gives you something to hook a finger through. Look at the wallet edge on and you can see the gussets folding over one another.

Three weaves across the front

The front panel is not one fabric but three different weaves set side by side on a camel ground. The widest sits somewhere between ochre and mustard, dotted with short white threads that catch the light. Below it runs a darker band where orange and black cross in a deliberately uneven weave. A square of cream, red and beige geometric motifs closes the arrangement on the right. Nothing repeats, which is what gives the front its pieced-together look.

The back stays plain

Turn it over and the pattern disappears: a completely plain back in the same camel, broken only by the top zip. That is the side you see when the wallet is lying on a counter or sticking out of a bag pocket.

Open it and the print changes

The lining goes its own way rather than echoing the woven front. It carries a small repeating print of diamonds and crosshatch in brown, cream and orange, over the base and the inner flaps alike. The tones stay warm, so opening the wallet is not the sharp colour change that a bright lining usually brings.

Pairing the camel with the rest of your bag

Camel is easy company for indigo denim, khaki trousers and a grey coat that needs warming up. Because the front already carries three patterns, a plain bag suits it better than a printed one, and the wallet becomes the only graphic thing you pull out at the till. If you want to compare openings before choosing, wallets with a zip across the front are gathered on one page.

If you mostly carry change and a single card, a smaller purse with one coin pocket will take up less room in an evening bag.
